Moreover, our working hypothesis was that in 1957 the East Ger-
mans were still as much handicapped by occupation burdens as in
1950. As was indicated above, this was not actually the case, and

poorer than West German. Because of a number of factors, such as
rigidity in planning, lack of incentives, and absence of integration

Any help is welcome

Why so many russians are socialist

2019-07-26 14:34:16 UTC  

glory days?

2019-07-26 14:34:32 UTC

2019-07-26 14:34:37 UTC  

same with most socialists

2019-07-26 14:52:03 UTC  

The hipster narrative in Russia is probably run by socialists who say Putin is fascist

2019-07-26 15:06:27 UTC  

no they say Putin is liberal

2019-07-26 15:09:54 UTC  

Big doubt

2019-07-26 15:48:18 UTC  

Communism, not socialist.

2019-07-26 17:04:08 UTC  

There's a difference?

Socialism is the means to lead towards communism

2019-07-26 18:22:57 UTC  

communism by definition has no history, or future it exists in the eternal now

2019-07-26 18:26:18 UTC

Communism seeks a utopia akin to the 'garden of Eden' but we would have to be stunted (intellectually) to enjoy that garden.
